Walk the Blogwalk in Amsterdam

I am invited to attend an invitation-only event called the BlogWalk. This is a concept which invites several bloggers from a field of expertise and have a workshop together on the use of social media in a particular area. This BlogWalk is centered around the theme of “Digital Bohemiens”

Digital Bohemiens are (relatively) young people, fully adapted to the digital lifestyle. They see a city as their home, and are connected in European and global networks. They flock to conferences as their meeting places. If we look at this (somewhat exaggerated) portrait of the avant garde of internet users, what can we say about things like:

The tools they use
How they learn and develop themselves
How they support a highly mobile life style
The organisational models and business models that fit these networked individuals

I am currently reading the blogs of some of the other participants and boy…Do I feel humble to be part of it. Some really bright minds and forward thinkers will attend this meeting. I hope to come back with some fresh perspectives and new ideas!
